Mists of Nimressea

Isle of Thelliene

Originally home to a clan of wild elves, Thelliene is the largest of a chain of islands to the east of the main continent. The islands geography consists of thick jungles, and sporadic areas of open plains.

Human settlers arrived on the island during the start of the last century, originally sparking conflict with the native elf population due to the clearing of their jungle home. After nearly a decade of conflict, peace was reached, not through understanding but mutual fear of what was to come. Seers and priests on both sides had terrible visions of a coming darkness spreading over the land, dark shapes and nightmares consuming all those it touched.

Peace was brokered between the two sides, its leaders deciding the future held far more pressing concerns than their own petty squabbles. The relatively quick response from the two factions, and the resulting coalition has since proven to be a great beacon in the tide of darkness brought about by the mists. The island continues to attract refugees from all across Nimressea, of all races and nations. The coalition protects the island with a series of great towers that spread from coast to coast like a great web. An advanced warning system, utilizing human technological ingenuity, coupled with the primal magics of the elves detects the magical nature of the mist before it reaches the shores of the island. When an incursion is detected the towers alert a mobile force to disperse the mist and prevent anything from making landfall.
